Mechanisms of Conventional and High Tc Superconductivity

Superconductivity is the phenomenon by which certain materials exhibit zero electrical resistance when they are cooled below a certain temperature known as the critical temperature (Tc). Exhibition of this characteristic has made superconductivity one of the most studied and sought - after phenomenon for a number of commercial and industrial purposes.Mechanisms of Conventional and High Tc Superconductivity (International Series of Monographs on Physics) explains in detail the discovery and emergence of this phenomenon its development in the early stages and the advances gained because of this field till date.Mechanisms of Conventional and High Tc Superconductivity (International Series of Monographs on Physics) focuses on induced superconductivity and how it can applied to real - world scenarios in a feasible way. It discusses various magnetic electric and phononic mechanisms. It also discusses experimental methods high Tc cuprates and high and low critical temperature - induced superconductivity in a number of conventional and unconventional materials.This guide on superconductivity was published by the Oxford University Press in 1993 and is available in hardcover.Key Features:Mechanisms of Conventional and High Tc Superconductivity (International Series of Monographs on Physics) introduces the origin and basics of superconductivity to its readers through the medium of concepts images diagrams and graph plots.It serves as a handy companion for students to understand the present and potential applications of such materials in the fields of research computers and transportation.
